- Run a marathon – This is a good one, a 26.2 mile run will prove that someone’s endurance and health is top notch. It might suck during it, but after you will feel on top of the world
- Walk across the whole town of East Lyme(the long way) – This is a fun one. I have lived in EL my whole life and know the town like the back of my hand. Why not walk across the whole town for fun.
- Eat the spiciest food I can find – I am Irish. I cannot eat anything spicy, sometimes pepperoni is spicy for me. This would be a fear conqueror for me for sure and it would be good for me.
- Cage dive with sharks – Whenever I swim in the ocean, I always am a little worried about sharks. That is for good reason. One shark bite can kill you. So, why not get in a cage and get face to face with one of nature’s most feared predators.
- Make homemade ice cream – Okay, hear me out. This would be a great way to save money. Instead of buying ice cream all the time, get the ingredients and make it. This would save money.
- Go sky diving – Just do it. Why not, falling from the sky can’t be too bad, right?
- Eat liver and onions – Whenever in my family when gross food came up, liver and onions was one of those foods. Try something new, try the Shack’s liver and onions.
- Climb to the top of Mt. Rainier – This is one for the future, but I went to Mt. Rainier last summer and it was beautiful. Why not climb to its 14,000 foot peak.
- Go for a polar plunge – I want to stay warm, but some people might want to try getting a little cold. So, I could try to get out of my comfort zone.
- Get a motorcycle license – Cause why not, you never know when you will need to ride a motorcycle.
